Visual functions of the thalamus
The thalamus is the heavily interconnected partner of the neocortex. All areas of the
neocortex receive afferent input from and send efferent projections to specific thalamic …

Towards building a more complex view of the lateral geniculate nucleus: Recent advances in understanding its role
The lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) has often been treated in the past as a linear filter that
adds little to retinal processing of visual inputs. Here we review anatomical …

Anterior-posterior direction opponency in the superficial mouse lateral geniculate nucleus
We show functional-anatomical organization of motion direction in mouse dorsal lateral
geniculate nucleus (dLGN) using two-photon calcium imaging of dense populations in …

Inferring nonlinear neuronal computation based on physiologically plausible inputs
The computation represented by a sensory neuron's response to stimuli is constructed from
an array of physiological processes both belonging to that neuron and inherited from its …

Neural circuit to integrate opposing motions in the visual field
When navigating in their environment, animals use visual motion cues as feedback signals
that are elicited by their own motion. Such signals are provided by wide-field neurons …

Delay controls chimera relay synchronization in multiplex networks
We study remote (or relay) synchronization in multilayer networks between parts of one layer
and their counterparts in a second layer, where these two layers are not directly connected …

Corticothalamic feedback sculpts visual spatial integration in mouse thalamus
G Born, FA Schneider-Soupiadis, S Erisken… - Nature …, 2021 - nature.com
En route from the retina to the cortex, visual information passes through the dorsolateral
geniculate nucleus (dLGN) of the thalamus, where extensive corticothalamic (CT) feedback …

How inhibitory circuits in the thalamus serve vision
Inhibitory neurons dominate the intrinsic circuits in the visual thalamus. Interneurons in the
lateral geniculate nucleus innervate relay cells and each other densely to provide powerful …

The potential role of gap junctional plasticity in the regulation of state
P Coulon, CE Landisman - Neuron, 2017 - cell.com
Electrical synapses are the functional correlate of gap junctions and allow transmission of
small molecules and electrical current between coupled neurons. Instead of static pores …

Temporal precision in the visual pathway through the interplay of excitation and stimulus-driven suppression
Visual neurons can respond with extremely precise temporal patterning to visual stimuli that
change on much slower time scales. Here, we investigate how the precise timing of cat …
